Any one learning a new language would identify with this. Actually, I can't quite remember, but as an infant learns their first language, it must be like this. I couldn't help thinking that there must be some code to break here. It just goes to show that sounds that go together make some degree of sense/ Very creative Will.

Thanks my friend. I had completely forgotten about this one.

[Mystical Ink]

Wow this almost twisted my brain, Will. Very inspiring poem :D

[willweb]

It definitely twisted mine or, mine was already twisted. Probably the latter. : ) Thanks so much

Yes, I concur Sir. We do have to consider the ramifications of our actions, but call me old fashioned, I have no idea what made up words you refer to in the last line as I have read it numerous times and can only conclude that perhaps it may be that trancheled has fallen out of common usage.
Is there nothing sacred to those scrimfelating minellumists these days? 😊

I appreciate your insight and know that you have hit the proverbial plotacon right on the upper tellenberry. Thank my friend, I knew you would get this.

Very fun rhyme and rhythm. It must take some effort to make up a language and put it to rhyme.

[willweb]

Making up the words was the hard part. making them rhyme was easy (when you have control of the words)
Thank you Shelly for taking the time to read my weird little poem.

It sounds like Michael McClure reading the introduction to The Canterbury Tales in Gaelic in The Last Dance movie by The Band. (laughing) I have that movie. McClure was 22 years old when he read at the Six Gallery where Allan Ginsberg first read "Howl". Nothing wrong with nonsense language. To the untrained ear, almost any foreign language is nonsense.

Very interesting Fabian. I had not heard that but I have now. Thanks so much for turning me on to that. I'm glad you had fun with this.

[Dave Brown]

I'm not sure just what it all actually amounts to but it seems in the end to have worked out just fine

[willweb]

That makes two of us.

[Einstein Noodle]

nice not to take ourselves seriously now and again .. very melodic in a whimsical way
